The 80s Lyrics

Artist: Robbie Williams
Album: Rudebox 1974

I smoked Consulates and Park Drive, drank Nookie BrownLearned how to skivePolo mints to hide my breath from my mumDid a little weed cuz it felt like funDid a little bit of speed if my friend had someNicked Volkswagen badges I'm a Beastie Boys sonMe so horny, me so young and I still get my washing doneAuntie Joe died of cancer God didn't have an answerRhythm was a dancerAny room for a chancer? That's me in the corner, thanks sir!I wore a troop track suit, British Nike shoes, Kangol hat like LL Cool'sBefore I was 'avin it, 'avin it largeThey nicked the BMX from out my garageKnew it was Tier from off the estate cuz every time he'd see me, he'd smile like we were matesFrom then on in I'd have to walk to me Nan'sAnd I'd dream my dreams through a sea of pramsLike a hooligan on the football standsAnd I'd throw the v's to Leeds and West HamThen I ran, I ran so far away down Scotia Road to a taxi bayThen I ran again cuz I couldn't pay, a Muslim didn't get his fare that dayI apologise today

Things are better when they startThat's how the 80s broke my heart

And who are you calling poof? You like Wham, man, I hate that stuffAnd then my grandad died and left a hole in the family and lots of women had to nanny meSchool was a laugh, they didn't have ADD, thick was the term they used for me(over and over)Repeatedly(over and over)

Take my breath away take my breath awayBidly bidly bidly bongPass it on the left hand side, right turn, Clyde

That girl in the fourth year, got pregnant and she was raised Catholic, brilliant!I cried, she cried, we cried, her youth diedDrank cider in the cemeteryThe year above us had discovered E and I said it weren't for me?12.50? I could rob me mum's purse and buy one off chalckyMet a girl on Monday, drank fizzy pop on TuesdayFingered her on Wednesday and on Thursday and Friday and on SaturdayDumped by Sunday

Things are better when they startThat's how the 80s broke my heartThe wonder years, I've played my partThat's how the 80s broke my heart

Like I said, I lost my virginity to a girl called Anne-Marie, well she said she fancied meAnd then she said "fuck me" and I thought 'fuck me, I'm all talk and it'll be over too quickly'And it was but I couldn't care less, I'd seen a girl's part,made a mess on her dress, oh yes!You're now rocking with the best, second person in my year that had seen a breastI'm in my 30s now and I'm still impressedWhere are the Flawclands mum? And what have they done?Where do girls come from? Where do girls come from? Where do girls come from?

It's the 80s, what you looking at, ya mong?So young, so long, so young, so longToo short, so longWhat you looking at ya mong?Too short, so long, too short, so longSo long.
